Is It Worh Modding An Amp

I put TKD volume pot and AudioNote Copper caps in an older Cary Audio SLP94 preamp and it was a nice upgrade over stock.

I think as others have said it really depends on what your looking for but yes changing a few key components can change the sound if its an improvement or not is up to your ears and what yo like. it could be a fun experiment if your handy with a soldering iron to change out key components with others. I've always wanted to try a bunch of different caps etc.

The PL is a great integrated amp-as is.

4 premium caps and # resistors + labor probably will eat $500+ easy?

Unless you're Bob Carver, no amount of modifications will turn it into an ARC, BAT or whatever killer.

Put the PL in a second system or sell it.

The PL already has a low resale value. Mods will lower it.

The chance you will regret it is actually higher than anticipated.

Do you really want an unknown hands temper with your equipment for the goal you don't know if you achieve or not??

It all depends on who is doing the modding and what their track record is. Modwright and Backert Labs both started modifying electronics. Perhaps people have heard of them? Ric at EVS mods mostly digital equipment. I'm sure there are others. You just have to use due diligence in your search.

I would not dismiss them out of hand. However, as @tablejockey pointed out, the PL gear is already full of premium parts. Not sure what you would gain with mods?

If you have money that is burning a hole in your pocket, why not check out some of the newest cheap class D amps. You may be surprised.

I see a portion of my post missing-

There are threads of PL owners swapping coupling caps and resistors. Just how much "improvement" is gained? I imagine it’s a YMMV thing?

Just how convincing the sound is coming out of your speakers-that's the sum of ALL parts. Recording/gear/room.
